Do you want to do more than plan projects - and actively drive them forward?
In this role, you will combine classical project controls with modern data analytics, AI-supported methods, and smart reporting. You will take an active role in the project controls environment and bringing topics into implementation with a clear hands-on mindset. You create transparency, support data-based decision-making, and help us take project control to the next level. Together, we make the difference.

What do you contribute?

• In your new role, you will be responsible for the end-to-end planning, control, and optimization of integrated project schedules and project workflows. This role combines classical project scheduling with data-driven reporting, AI-supported analysis, and strategic information management to strengthen transparency, controllability, and project success.
• You will develop, maintain, and continuously improve integrated project schedules in Primavera P6 or MS Project, including resource management and earned value calculation.
• Align schedules with contractual milestones, delivery strategies, project execution requirements, and key internal and external interfaces.
• You will monitor progress across development, engineering, procurement, installation, and testing activities, ensuring accurate and timely reporting across multidisciplinary teams.
• Prepare look-ahead plans, recovery schedules, and scenario analyses to support short-term execution control, corrective actions, and proactive decision-making.
• Furthermore you identify critical and near-critical paths, assess schedule risks, delays, and time impacts, and develop mitigation scenarios to support project strategy and stakeholder alignment.
• Schedule quality reviews and health checks verify logic, float, constraints, baseline integrity, and overall schedule robustness.
• You use data- and AI-based methods to update schedules, measure progress, and generate forecasts, S-curves, KPI dashboards, risk insights, and project management-level reports.
• Project KPIs and schedule information are translated into clear decision support, executive summaries, and recommendations for appropriate project measures.
• Project-related information is structured and provided to stakeholders in a targeted way, strengthening transparency, traceability, and project control.
• Identify and document schedule impacts from changes, variations, and deviations to support delay management with time-impact analysis.

What do you bring along?

• Bachelor’s or master’s degree in engineering, project management, construction management, industrial engineering, or a comparable technical field.
• Several years of professional experience in project planning, scheduling, or project controls, ideally in rail, infrastructure, engineering, or other large-scale project environments.
• Advanced knowledge of Primavera P6 and/or MS Project, including baseline schedules, CPM logic, dependencies, resource and cost loading, schedule updates, and progress measurement.
• Strong understanding of critical path analysis, schedule risk assessment, delay analysis, time-impact analysis, recovery planning, and schedule quality reviews.
• Experience with project KPIs, forecasting, S-curves, Power BI or similar reporting tools, and data-based management reporting.
• Confident handling of complex and large volumes of project data, information management, and AI-supported analytical methods in multidisciplinary project environments.
• Strong analytical, communication, and stakeholder-management skills, with the ability to translate schedule data into clear decision support.
• Fluent English language skills are required to communicate effectively in international and local project environments.
• Experience in railway signaling, rail infrastructure, or international projects is a strong advantage.
• A scheduling or project controls certification, such as PMI-SP, AACE Planning & Scheduling Professional, or an equivalent qualification, is desirable.
• If you take responsibility, prioritize smartly, and reliably bring topics to completion, we look forward to getting to know you.
